Flood Fundraising from Gossamer Dreams

Just a scan of the donation - this was money from Cherub's Kiss auctions and Outrageous! jewellery from the Gossamer Dreams Stocking on the 15th January.

Thank you to everyone that purchased or bid to raise this awesome amount.

We deposited it to the Salvation Army Flood Appeal through Woolworths as they were matching dollar for dollar the funds donated, which means twice as much to those that will need it the most in the coming weeks and months.

Gossamer Dreams Stocking

Tonight at 8pm Queensland time, you can find us here

Quite a few of the goodies that are up are being donated to the Flood Relief Fund, so please pop along and bid or buy.


We have guest WAHMs as well - Gorgeous Sara from Willow and Moo and Divine Miss Anna from Howie and Charlie. This is Anna's first outing with the Gossamer Dreams Girls but we are hoping that like Sara she makes a return during the year.


The theme for Gossamer Dreams is 'Eden'

I've personally found it very hard this week to even get motivated. My darling DH works in television and he's been doing extremely long shifts so we've not seem him very much and he's doing 7 days straight. I don't know how he can stand to watch all the devastation, I've switched off the telly. But all the cherubs are sending thoughts and prayers for anyone that is affected by the floods and bushfires in anyone in Australia and also those in Brazil.

Happy New Year

But for the vast majority - 2011 hasn't started well with alot of towns having either cleaning up from major floods, or still bracing for the peaks to hit.

My family are in Rockhampton which to all intents and purposes is now cut off, whilst my sister is high on the range, water is starting to lap in and around my Mum's house. We were up there for Christmas and the water had started to recede some when we arrived but the time we left was higher than ever and still rising. There are alot of people in need all over Queensland so I'm going to try and do my bit by fundraising through auctions etc via Possum Pouches.

There is already an auction up donated by Kylie from EarthChild/Little Zen - it's a gorgeous rainbow coloured set.

I've decided to kick things off with a rainbow minky coloured AIO, we need a bit of sunshine and rainbows in Queensland at the moment and what better way to start things off.



I'm open to suggestions as to how else you'd like me to help raising funds?
